    I was feeling really confident tonight so I changed my orientation on Facebook to "interested in men" from nothing. After about five seconds I quickly jumped back into the closet. Why does it have to be so complicated? I don't get myself anymore.

    I've thought about doing that too, but I'm not ready to be completely out. Maybe eventually...

    When I changed my status, I made sure that I would be away from my computer for a while. That way, even though I had the impulse to change it back, I couldn't. That worked pretty well for me.

    I did it. It's not that bad. It's not like anyone stalks your info. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I did it only after I told the people close to me..my parents and sisters. It was a great feeling, but usually no one will notice unless they stalk your profile. :slight_smile:
